Connecting a Line-Level Source
This system example uses a device with a dedicated mono line-level audio output such as a mixing
console’s Aux send or the Aviom A360 Personal Mixer’s Mono Mix Out connected to the BOOM-1’s line-
level input on the rear panel. If your mono line-level audio source has a balanced TRS 1/4-inch connector,
use a TRS-to-XLR male adapter cable.
The following items will be used:
•
A360 Personal Mixer (or other mono line-level source)
•
XLR male/female mic cable
•
BOOM-1 Tactile Transducer Processor
•
Drum throne
•
Drum throne with CTT-1 Clamp-On Transducer installed
•
Locking speaker cable
•
Headphones or earbud monitors
Start with the power off on all devices. Follow these steps to connect the system:
1. Make sure that the CTT-1 tactile transducer is firmly connected to the drum throne.
